It is a vehicle-free roadway lit on both sides by luminaria traveling through some of the most beautiful desert scenery around.Desert Foothills Theater and Desert Foothills Youth Theater artists will be on hand to provide pre-race, post-race and on-course entertainment for the runners.

And it is being timed once again by Peggy and Mike and the friendly folk at All Arizona Running Events Company.

Thank you!!!

It was a beautiful night for a run!Last night was probably one of the MOST beautiful nights we have had for the run ever. Perfect temperature, gorgeous sunset and beautiful city views coming back after that uphill climb. THANK YOU to everyone who came out. We so very much appreciate your support of this event.

We are evaluating the lights. Pros...they don't have any fire likelihood, don't have to be blown out after the race and do not blow out in wind. Cons...not quite as bright--at least in the brown bags. We are going to test more options.

It is an ongoing learning process--even after 12 years we are always working to keep this race what it should be. It is a quiet, peaceful, beautiful race honoring a 62-year Cave Creek tradition of luminaria trails. Everyone at the race is appreciated!

Thank you to the great volunteers who came out and made it (according to our timing company) the BEST registration ever, to our setup volunteers, our volunteers from racelab at registration and on the course and to our fabulous luminaria crews who finished their work in record time this year! THANK YOU ALL!
